Cleveland High School's International Baccalaureate Visual Arts Exhibition
Gallery 114 is proud to present the Cleveland High School's Baccalaureate Visual Arts exhibition. The goals of International Baccalaureate (IB) Visual Arts are for students to explore and critically respond to: the aesthetic qualities of visual arts, the relationship between form and meaning, the social and cultural functions of visual arts, and the socio-‐cultural and historical contexts of other cultures. The work is deeply introspective, cultivated from the artists' own experiences and in this sense, it is a fusion of the hearts and minds of our young people. This year's class will curate a stunning exhibition with twelve individual artists showcasing their talents and ideas. Cleveland High School HL IB Art seniors will present a selection of their best work, a two year culmination of their IB experience. (art is not for sale)
Participating artists: Adele Avenoso, Ellie Buck, Isabella Cummings, Liam Everson-O’Neil, Ada Hofmeister, Chloe Isaacman, Zeqe Golomb, Salem Khoury, Chloe Maher, Lauran Shanley, Grace Springer, Madeleine Wright |

James Reed - 'ACCOMPLICE’ - April 4 - 29
Reasonings, Reckonings and Ratios from Elsewhere The exhibition will present recent drawings , paintings and sculptures. Accomplice is a continuation of the trajectory of process based work that I have been working with since moving to Portland in 2010 from South Africa.These Visual Artworks I have made offer the viewer an invitation to participate in the process of creativity, not by making anything concrete in the conventional artistic sense, but by perceiving how their experience is both shaped and shapes what appears as external to it; that the mind and its mental produce, is like other phenomena, the morphing consequence of interactivity and causality. Now Now with guest artists:- Group exhibition of South African Contemporary Visual Artists' work in the South Gallery. The exhibition will present a number of drawings, paintings, sculpture, photography and book works by Alex Trapani, Alison Shaw, Cedrick Vanderlinden, Dirk Bahmann, Gary Frier, Gopolang Thage, Jenny Ord, Jill Trappler, Londiwe Mtshali, Neil Nieuwoudt, Ross Passmoor, Stephan Erasmus, Wayne Matthews. (Showing with James Reed exhibit) Kay Danley "Painting the Inbetween" - May 5 - 27 The act of painting exposes a doorway to my inner life. My experience is filtered and condensed through a lens of emotions, events, and a curious, individual way of encountering the world. When I enter that doorway, words no longer serve as an important expressive vehicle. Images and recurring symbols take over that function. Each time I face the canvas, the portal opens and I walk through. Gallery 114 Artists Group Exhibit - June 1 - July 1 All the artists of Gallery 114 will have one or two pieces of art on view in the group exhibit. A fine example of differing points of view, differing mediums and creative work. Join us for a sampling of the great art of the members of Gallery 114! |

Two Thousand Nine Hundred Miles Away
Jeffrey Fuchs / Sharon February 2 - 25, 2023 Opening Reception: 1st Thursday, February 2, 5 to 8pm. How do we locate ourselves in time and space? Points on a map exert a psychic pull on us, whether through lived experience, family of origin, ancestry, or a lineage of artistic influences we've never met. What does distance mean in a hyperconnected, context-collapsed world, and how is our perspective mediated when we are a nation or a neighborhood away? Some places take on a mythical quality or represent something lost, and others we distance ourselves from, only to be drawn back later in life. How do we hold this constellation while remaining present, engaged, and in relationship with our time and place in this moment? Juried Exhibit - "What If" A Nationally Juried Exhibit January 5 - 28, 2023 What If?? “Last night while I lay thinking here some What Ifs crawled inside my ear and pranced and partied all night long and sang their same What If song” (from a Shel Silverstein poem) Donald Dahlke / Agglomerations Dianne Jean Erickson / Object and Line December 1 - 30, 2022 Donald: My concept of visual art is a process of discovery not bound by artistic convention. My approach is experimental and combines geometric and organic techniques creating entities reflecting my perception of a complex world. Dianne: In my last two series "Women With Attitude" and "Stacked," I used a great deal of color. In this new series "Object and Line," I wanted to simplify color and object, keeping this statement in mind, "what is not included is as important as what is..." The background becomes as important as the object within. Open Channels - Jon Gottshall with Kerry Davis and Anna Daedalus - November 3-26 In the Zone - Serena Barton with Jo Grishman - October 6 - 29 My aim in this body of work is to express the essence of my passions and the excitement of learning itself in visual form. About Face - Mark Danley - September 1 - October 1 RED SCARE - Ruth Ross with Diane Kendall - August 4 - 27 There was no doubt that the “witch hunts” of the 40’s and 50’s, which resulted in the deaths of the Ethel and Julius Rosenberg impacted profoundly my parent’s sense of security. We fled without telling anybody. And most of this was never discussed again. We Are All In This Together - July 2022 Showcasing New Members' work in our Main Gallery Donald Dahlke, Kay Henning Danley, Dianne Jean Erickson, Jeffrey Fuchs, Sharon Servilio Established members' work featured in our South Gallery Pat Barrett, Serena Barton, Mark Danley, Jon Gottshall, Joanie Krug, Jeff Leake, Maude Anne May, James Reed, Ruth Ross Is It Done Yet?

Undercurrent - April 2022
Pat Barrett: My paintings evolve from the physical act of mark-making to the formation of visual patches of color and value. These structures become holders for the ideas and emotions that are influencing the developing painting. I don’t use formulaic strategies. So, it’s critical that I remain alert and open when painting. I am looking for those opportunities that appear during the process that help give structure to whatever it is that I am paying attention to on the most intuitive level. These are matters that for me can only be mediated through the act of painting.
